Do Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance and Immune System Development Share Common Epigenetic Processes?

Epigenetic modifications regulate gene expression for development, immune response, disease, and other processes. A major role of epigenetics is to control the dynamics of chromatin structure, i.e., the condensed packaging of DNA around histone proteins in eukaryotic nuclei. Key epigenetic factors i...
